Libanais - Time Out Market Chicago

Juicy, marinated shawarma shaved off a spit; smooth and creamy hummus; crispy falafel—the traditional flavors of Mediterranean cuisine take center stage at this family-run Lebanese restaurant. With roots that trace back more than eight decades to the capital city of Beirut, Libanais offers a tantalizing selection of mezzes, wraps and more. The Kharoof Mehchi bowl stands out as a favorite, featuring a combination of rice, ground beef, roasted lamb and a delicious yogurt cucumber salad. For a sweet finish, the baklava, available in several varieties and also vegan-friendly, steals the show.
